Default mph to km/h?

I'm buying a S2k from US and I live in Canada.
As most of you know we are using km/h, I wonder if there is a way to change it to km/h without swaping the whole instrument cluster.

He's new here and probably does not have the car yet and hence has no manual to read. agape: There is a button that changes the display.

Only thing you need to make the car compliant with canadian laws are the running day lights. (I almost bought mine in the US). Contact the gvt service (forget which one now, lol) to get all the info you need for importing it, they even send out a free info packet.

Evan, don't forget that you'll need to get in the other side of the car!

Actually if Evan's bringing his car here he should still get in on the same side unless he has a chauffeur.

Agape - the switch is clearly marked, but you need to hold it down a few seconds for the display to change. We chop & change here when we go onto the continent, and it is no problem.

Yes, the car has a button in the instrument cluster to switch back and forth between mph and km/h

A site you need to go and visit: http://www.riv.ca/ - Registrar of Imported Vehicles
